Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then take the action that isn't working the way you expect. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.

Itune wont open when iphone connected.

When I plug my Iphone into the computer either Itunes wont open or if it's open it wont recognize the phone. The computer shows it's connected because it always asks when program I wont to use to look at the pictures. I have tried rebooting the computer and it doesn't help. My IPOD is recognized but not the Iphone. Help!!!

I had the same thing. Here's what fixed it for me:
I had downloaded the latest iTunes (7.3) but because my existing copy of iTunes wasn't in the base, Applications folder, it didn't overwrite my existing iTunes application. Therefore, when you go to click on iTunes in your dock, or any desktop alias, etc., it's still opening the old version. Try opening the newly downloaded version (in the base, Applications folder) and try it again. I bet ya it'll work.

Itunes wont open when i plug my ipod in

My ipod is disabled and it says connect through itunes, and i've put it in recovery mode and it has the itunes thing up when the recovery mode has worked, but the itunes thing wont pop up on the screen! Please help!

By 'wont pop up' do you mean that iTunes on your computer doesn't automatically open when you connect it to to ? If you do then if you open iTunes yourself, does it then recognise that a device in recovery mode it connected to your computer ? If not then do you have the current version of iTunes installed on your computer ?

Itunes wont open when connected to iphone. why?

I also have a new MB Pro running OS X 10.9.5 and a new iPhone 6. My iPhone connects to iTunes, but hangs at step 6 in the sync process -- copying apps to the iPhone. I let it run all night last night and it never got beyond the second app. This morning I upgraded to iOS 8.0.2 and have the same problem. Now I am stuck at the third app.

Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem

Itunes wont open when i try to activate

can someone please help me...please?
when i plugged my phone in for the first time, all that opened up was iphoto...and i have tried all the troubleshooting tips apple suggests but nothing is working. does anyone know what im doing wrong?

Hey Wilcogirl7,
I had the problem of itunes not being able to open AT ALL. If this is your problem, it can be fixed by deleting all "com.apple.itunes" files in your Library's Preferences folder. Once deleted log out and then back in. If this still doesn't work then move the entire preferences folder to your desktop, log out and then back in. If that fixes the problem then you're set. If you end up moving the entire preferences folder, all of your preferences will be gone such as desktop picture, ichat prefs, etc. but easily replaceable. If it is too much work then just simply put those "com.apple...." (specific to that application) files into your new preferences folder. Let me know if this helps.

Itunes wont open on Windows XP

I have installed, then uninstalled several times, itunes and quick time from apple.com via cable on my laptop with windows xp. All the icons are on the desktop, but itunes wont open when double clicked. I do not get any error message, only hour glass appears for a few seconds and then its gone. I turned off NIS before installing, removed temp files, deleted previous downloads, restarted computer, updated windows, turned off firewall - nothing has worked so far. Any suggestions !!!

hi Singh!
is that Norton Internet Security 2005 that you've got? if so, let's first check up on this issue:
iTunes 6 won't open on a Windows computer if firewall software is not up-to-date
... but if no joy with that, let's try the trusty Lorraine M technique:
Lorraine M: NIS/itunes problem rectified
but if no joy with either of those, we'd better check up on this issue, which can produce the same symptoms you're reporting (no error messages whatsoever and a "two-second hourglass"):
iTunes for Windows doesn't open after upgrading
keep us posted

Itune wont open with iphone attached

iTunes wont open when I attach my iPhone to the computer with the same USB ccable I have been using. I can open iTunes then all works fine. In iTunes the option to open iTunes when phone is attached is clicked on.

Check out this Apple document -> iTunes for Mac won't open automatically when connecting device.
You'll have to disable the "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically" option before you can choose to have iTunes open when the iPhone is connected.

Itunes wont open and when re-installed received this msg: Service Apple mob device failed to start. You have insufficent privileges to start system svc. Help?

Download Itunes from Apple.com, not from within Itunes.
Redo the install, following the below procedure. However, when you re-install Itunes, right click and run the install as administrator. For Win 7, you have to hold down the cntrl and shift keys when you right click and then "run as administrator" will be an option.
Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (Vista, Win 7 & later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

Itunes wont open after snow lep upgrade

upgraded to snow lep. went through all software updates rebooted multiple times. Itunes wont launch, when I double click it gives me an unexpextedly quit window, downloaded itunesx reinstalled....nothing...........so an apple app, doesnt play well with an apple os?

It is likely an issue with the iTunes Library file.
You can rebuild it by following this article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1451
If you rebuild the library, it should take care of the problem. I would make sure you have a Time Machine backup before starting any major task, just in case something wrong happens. Better safe, than sorry.
